In this riveting, often funny, sometimes risqué narrative, a legendary public intellectual from the global south takes us through the moments of a life of engagement: childhood with artist parents, education under the Jesuits, antiwar activism at Princeton, underground work as a communist cadre against dictatorship, radical professor and prolific writer, globe-trotting crusader against empire and globalization, and parliamentarian who makes history with the only resignation on principle in the annals of Congress.

But this is more than a political diary. It is a search for the meaning of what the author calls the “lost generation”—his cohort of revolutionary youth that reached for the stars, fell short, but still made a difference.
